Hey there, Jared. Thanks for the kind words — we’re glad you found our messy drinkers article helpful!

Iams is typically not one of the foods we recommend, though we always think it is important to work with your vet when deciding on a dog food. It’s not that it’s necessarily a “bad” food, but there are (again, in our opinion) many much better choices out there.

And yes — your dogs may very well need two different foods if they have different energy levels, are different sizes, or have different health conditions.

We’d recommend starting by checking out our article about how to choose a dog food. It outlines some of the important things you’ll need to consider when making a choice.
Best of luck!
